Update: interview scheduled for March 4th! 

My dad I485 was approved yesterday, and green card is in production, without interview.
Waiting on mom now, I130 was approved two weeks ago

Biometrics done! One more step towards wrapping this up.

Me too. Feels good to see progress. Hopefully EAD finally arrives now.

I actually think otherwise, or at least I marked yes which a lawyer told me to do. I was also very confused, since I had started the process with the NVC, submitted all papers paid all fees and was waiting to hear back from them.  Then pandemic, border closures, etc... countries and I found myself in the US not knowing what to do. I was advised to let the NVC process pending and start AOS, since I had proof of no immigrant intent at my time of entry.
 
I filled the form with: Yes, in decision I wrote pending and in date I wrote N/A.
Once I filed AOS I notified the NVC with an online inquiry.
 
All my AOS package has been accepted,  received my EAD/AP and now I am waiting for the interview. Just so you know I didnt get an RFE for my answer.
 

Are you enrolled in your spouse's health insurance? If yes, some plans will cover vaccines 100% as they are considered preventive care.
If your spouse has a Health Savings Account (a type of tax advantaged account) you can also save the receipts and reimburse yourselves through the HSA.

Received my EAD/AP this week and now it says my interview is ready to be scheduled!. Waiting to get this over with but it already feels like a success to have gotten the EAD card. I filed AOS package late January and had biometrics early May. Expedited EAD with job offer. Trying to get an idea on how long it will take to have the interview!

Filed 01/13/2021, just received Biometrics appointment letter today! Yay!

Update in case my experience can be of someone's use:
 
Waited a week after status changed to show my RFE response package was received. Started trying Emma and calling to get a response regarding my EAD expedite request that was put on hold until I responded to the RFE (I had already faxed evidence and never got any other updates). Finally, I was able to get an agent that didnt just slammed the door on me with the ''you just have to wait'', and actually told me that in their system the expedite request didnt appear, so odd!. I even sent a screenshot of my case status and dates when I and the rep contacted them with my request's evidence. Anyways, she told me to just go ahead and make another expedite request (my third one), so I explained the financial loss/job offer situation and how ive had 2 months with my last expedite request not being processed despite all evidence already sent. Two day later (today) I check my case status and it had changed to ''New Card is being produced''.
 
Honestly, so many times I thought that was the end, that Im still so distrustful and expecting something to go wrong, so.... YAY! but also waiting for the card in my hands to be like OKAY NOW YAAAY. Because who knows how long it will be till I get, a week, a month, 6 months.... nothing surprises me anymore.

AOS sent January 30th. Tried expediting EAD with job offer in begining April and got denied for lack of biometrics. Biometrics on May 3rd and second expedite request on May 5th. Got an RFE asking for more financial evidence for I485 on June 1st, so my expedite request was placed on hold with my complete case. Response to RFE package sent July 7th, now waiting for my expedite request to be granted while the rest of my adjustment of status is processed. No clue about time frame, I've had job offers since beginning of March, yet here we are.
 
But I feel for you that haven't even gotten biometrics letter. I would say to contact your rep and put pressure through them.

I tried expediting back in April personally and through my Representative, and I got denied saying my case was on hold until biometrics. I got my biometrics done on Monday 3rd and I called to expedite the very next day. I also contacted the Rep again and they filed an expedite on my behalf, the system registered that on Wed 5th they received it.

Still nothing on biometrics received. I did an email contact form with their help system and have received nothing back yet.

AOS package sent on Jan 30th. Had my biometrics on May 3rd and filed an expedite request on the 5th for financial loss linked to a job offer. On the 16th they asked me to fax evidence and now I am waiting for the result so I get my EAD.

This has been very helpful! Thank you so much!

Hello! I am attaching my general cover letter which we sent a couple months ago, I am also adjusting from a visitor visa but with an already approved I130 from 2019 (I entered with a B2 visa but had already been married for a few years, it was just a pandemic related change of plans). I received my NOAs about 5 weeks after sending the AOS package and I just got scheduled for biometrics, so no RFE as of now.
 
This is the general cover letter to explain how the whole AOS package is laid out. I also made cover letters for each form where I list every supporting evidence I am attaching.
Hope it helps!
